Separator
 Anish Rakheja,    FounderA growing entrepreneurial and advancing corporate culture in India is paving the way for executive coaching solutions in the nation. A domain that was, not too long ago, not widely known, is now rapidly growing. This progress comes with the growing pressures that executives and leaders face externally and internally to build a meaningful legacy, which impacts not only the company, industry or the environment but also for self-contentment. The daunting question of, ‘What legacy am I creating? What footprints am I going to leave behind?’ are motivating more companies and leaders to seek coaching solutions. These coaches are helping individuals cope with the pressures of the corporate world and becoming agile in their leadership to thrive and realize the true purpose of life and living.

However, the looming challenge of not experiencing improvement, and lacking accountability deters many from seeking professional guidance. To address this prevailing struggle is Anish Rakheja’s Krescon Coaches. Built on the pillars of confidentiality, accountability, and trust worthiness, the firm works with clients to dissolve rather than resolve, the reasons for which they seek remediation. Founded to enable professionals to leave a meaningful legacy behind which turns a leader into a legend, the company aims to become a transformational force in the clients’ lives.

Choosing Executive Coaching

Anish’s journey into becoming an executive coach can be traced back to the time when he was working in the corporate world. After completing his graduation from IIT Roorkee and thereafter securing an MBA from IIM Mumbai, Anish worked for over two decades in Fortune Five companies, learning the ins and outs of the corporate structure. During this time, he was also assigned a coach and witnessed the impact that one can derive from their guidance. Finally leaving his job in 2013, he started working in a few startups of his own while pursuing coaching on the side, eventually delving into executive coaching as his primary role inspired by the concept of legacy and legends, and forming Krescon Coaches. Today, Krescon has partners in 10 countries, catering to diverse clients and companies across the globe.

“The focus as we see for Krescon is unveiling the idea of playing the game of life in such a way that at the end of life, Life stands up and says ‘well played’. Our idea is to help our clients achieve a sense of fulfilment and contentment which can only come when one is convinced that they put their best foot forward in discovering who what they truly are. Although outcomes are not in our control, inputs are, hence the intent is to focus on what’s in our control for our reasonings and realizations”, shares Anish Rakheja, Founder, Krescon Coaches.

For transforming a leader into a legend, Anish identified that there is a need to create an environment that is free of judgment, but which may nudge individuals to truly reflect, and perhaps not always see the most flattering image. Comparing a coach to a mirror, he set out to unravel answers for his clients which only reveal themselves through targeted questions that prompt deeper introspection, empowering them to utilize this newfound awareness to chart out a remarkable journey.
“A quote which rings deep for me is that, ‘The goal isn’t to live forever; it is to create something that, ‘The It’s the legacy that should fuel one’s action be that physical, verbal, or mental. The idea of becoming a legend running deep and transforming oneself within and without. We at Krescon strive to help clients realize their basic nature which is contentment arising from completeness and is expressed through the Sanskrit word ‘Poorna’. Once a person has the realization, the terrors and temptations of the world does not deter him and the focus shifts to approaching the transactions with the intent of giving rather than wanting, dedicating rather than desiring, and offering rather than asking. This essential upgrade in our inner programming is what empowers leaders to create a meaningful legacy and to become a legend”, adds Anish.
